Just wanna get something off my chest

I'm having some health issues that I'm really scared about!!! A couple months ago i started having pain in my low abdomen & pelvis, and I finally saw someone about it in today. I won't know the results of my scan till sometime next week, and the anxiety is just eating at me. I am freaked out that it's something serious, like ovarian cancer.

My family is annoyed with my worries, but I am so stressed out and anxious right now. I've had other health issues within the past year that I was told was nothing serious, but it really is possible they could be signs of ovarian cancer. I know I shouldn't use google to try and self diagnose symptoms, or assume the worst. But I can't help it right now, and I am also in pain.

I just wanted to complain & get my worries off my chest. Thanks for reading.

It is normal to freak out in these circumstances. I know I did when I found out about my cancers. I wish you won't worry untill you get your scan exams and even then that you would not worry. I am a cancer survivor and I had very good dear friends with ovarian cancer or uterine cancer and some got away with minor surgery or cauterising, others had their uterus removed but they all fought and survived.

Like your family, I am sad sad to see you worry before time but I also know I did the same in your situation. You will lough at yourself if it nothing but benign hormonal cysts...like my ex-wife who went on to have kids...Internet is a double edged sword, it is useful for information but it may also worry you unnecessarilly, better let professional outcome results come forth and then build your strategy if need be or just have a good lough if everything is fine...

I feel for you, at least you have a family who cares for you...

You have my hugs🤗🤗🤗 and my strong wishes that everything will be allright...
